Your welcome, Cognac. One more thing for Anne Marie. In case you never get in touch with your mother, her words to me were that she loves you so much and that if you call, religion will not be discussed. She just wants to tell you she loves you and wishes you a wonderful life. That's all. -

Grace wasn't herself. She was alone and said she wasn't even going to pick up the phone because she didn't recognize the number or name. As soon as I said it was Label Licker, she chuckled a little. I told her to put a note pad beside her phone and write my name along with the phone number since she can't remember much.
She doesn't know that I put this post up since she's lost interest in a lot of things except her soap which comes on in the afternoon. She will tell you not to call between 4:30 and 5:30.
Her daughter, Susan has asked her to call her every morning now when she gets up to make sure she is ok. But it really hurt me when she said her only wish is to hear Ann Marie's voice just once before she goes. Grace didn't sound well. She was very quiet and our phone call was short. I told her I will be up in her area in March for an operation and I will have to bring my rotti with me and she said how she just loves dogs so when we are up there, I will take my Buddy up there after the operation before I head for home.
From what I gathered, Anne Marie lives in Montreal. Will call Grace again to see if I can get more info on Ann Marie. She asked her other daughter, Susan to ask Ann Marie to call her and Susan said it's pointless. She has tried with no success. Ann Marie won't do it.
I just hope Ann Marie or her children are reading this and act on it before it's too late. I feel the only thing that keeps Grace going is one day soon she might get a surprise phone call and it will be Ann Marie. One can only wish.I couldn't think of anything else to do for this poor woman but post this.

a special message to her daughter, Ann Marie if you are watching this site. Your mother is eighty-eight now and her memory is going fast. She doesn't want any visitors at this point in her life but has only one request before she dies. She wants to see you or at least talk to you at least once before she dies. Your sister, Susan can give you her phone number or private message me and I will give it to you.
It's been too long and she really wants to talk. Her only sin, if you can call it that, was she couldn't believe in 1914. You, however can believe what you want, she won't judge you. Only one can judge and that's Jesus. 1 Corinthians 4:3-5.
Please don't let her die of a broken and lonely heart, Ann Marie. You can still keep god's commandment at Exodus 20:12 where we are to honour our mother and father.
Your mother is truly a remarkable and loving woman and just wants to share that with you, Anne Marie. I didn't speak to my mother when she wanted me to call her in three weeks and she died. I wouldn't want that for you or anyone else for it will haunt you for the rest of your life.
Please call her, Ann Marie. That's all I have to say and hope your reading this.
Marlene

Criminal Harassment: Stalking -- It's NOT Love
Criminal Harassment: Stalking -- It's NOT Love
PDF 468 kbWhat Is It?
Criminal harassment, more commonly known as STALKING, is a crime. Generally it consists of repeated conduct that is carried out over a period of time and which causes you to reasonably fear for your safety or the safety of someone known to you. Stalking does not have to result in physical injury in order to make it a crime. The law protects you even if the conduct of the stalker is not done with the intent to scare you. It is enough if the conduct does scare you. This may be an advance warning of the possibility of future violent acts.
Are you or someone you know being STALKED?
Are you afraid for your safety or the safety of someone known to you because of the words or actions of another person?
- Is someone repeatedly following you or someone known to you from place to place? Repeatedly is more than one time and does not have to be for an extended period of time. The incidents may have occurred during the same day.
- Is someone repeatedly communicating with you, either directly or indirectly?
- Directly can be by telephone, in person, leaving messages on answering machines, or sending unwanted gifts, notes, letters or e-mails.
- Indirectly can be by contacting people you know and having messages sent through them or simply by making repeated unwanted inquiries about you.
- Is someone persistently close by or watching your home or any place where you or anyone known to you live, work, carry on business or happen to be?
- Have you or any member of your family been threatened by this person?
If you can answer YES to any of these questions you or someone you know may be a victim of CRIMINAL HARASSMENT - STALKING.
What to do and NOT to do
You are NOT alone! Break the silence:
- Call the police.
- Contact a community help service.
- Talk to a friend, co-worker or family member.
Maintain detailed notes about the stalking conduct. Dates, times, places, actions and threats are easier to explain and remember when written down.
Keep all recorded telephone messages, e-mails, gifts, letters or notes that have been sent by the individual. Keep a list of emergency numbers posted in several locations. Emergency numbers should include:
- police;
- immediate family;
- friends;
- co-workers; and
- victim’s advocacy groups.
Pay attention to incidents that may seem coincidental. Are you suddenly running into this person more often? If you are not sure if you are being stalked contact the police.
Do NOT agree to have contact with a person who you think may be stalking you - contact the police. Each stalking situation is different. Consider that sometimes, when a stalker is confronted or meets with resistance, he/she may react with violence or the conduct may escalate.
What do we know about stalkers in Canada?
Criminal harassment (stalking) is not an activity that is attributed to any one specific psychiatric diagnosis. There is no single profile of a stalker that exists. It appears that the main motivation for stalking another person is the desire to control, particularly in cases where the subject is a former partner.
Individuals who stalk may possess one or more various psychological conditions, from personality disorders to mental illness. Most individuals who stalk are engaging in obsessional behaviour. They have persistent thoughts and ideas concerning the object of their attentions. A stalker does not necessarily have a psychiatric disorder.Legal History of Criminal Harassment
Stalking is not new but recognition of it as a distinct criminal behaviour took place on August 1, 1993. The creation of the new offence of criminal harassment was introduced as a specific response to violence against women. The creation of Section 264 of the Criminal Code of Canada makes this conduct a crime.Types of stalkers*
Simple Obsessional: The majority of these stalkers have been in some form of relationship with the victim. The contact may have been minimal, such as a blind date, but more commonly is a prolonged dating relationship, common law union or marriage. The perpetrator refuses to recognize that the relationship with the other person is over and the prevailing attitude is “if I can’t have her (or him) then no one else will.” A campaign of harassment, intimidation and psychological terror is mounted. The motivation for the harassment and stalking varies from revenge to the false belief that they can convince or coerce the victim back into the relationship.
Erotomanic: Is convinced that the object of his or her attention, usually of the opposite sex, fervently loves him or her and would return the affection if it were not for some external influence. The person about whom this conviction is held is usually of a higher status than the stalker but is often not a celebrity. It could be the supervisor at work, their child’s pediatrician, their church minister or the police officer who stopped them for a traffic violation but did not charge them. Sometimes it can be a complete stranger.
Love Obsessional: The stalker can be obsessed in his or her “love” without possessing the belief that the victim loves him or her. Very often the love obsessional stalker suffers from a major psychiatric illness such as schizophrenia or mania and wants to “win over” the love of his or her victim.
Another recognized but not well studied group of stalkers are those who stalk as a component to their paraphiliac (sexually deviant) focus. Some rapists and pedophiles have stalked because it is incorporated in their sexually deviant fantasies. Some sexual sadist will go through “behavioural try-outs” that will include stalking.

We had the goons sitting outside our property gates the one Sat morning for over five hours. The gates were locked with No Trespassing signs on each side of the gate. They waited until afternoon when my husband went to unlock the gates to df him at the end of our lane. We did absolutely nothing wrong except not go to any more of our meetings because they were involved in illegal activity along with a df'd person. On top of that, not once in over a year did they come to see what was wrong and no shepherding calls. However, we had a brother and his son go pass our property every day on roller blades and sit at the end of our lane trying to see in. We caught them a few times.
Don't be fooled if they do show up every so often into thinking they really care. Ours would come to our butcher shop and look around, stay for an hour and a half and then head back to the hall. Not once did they even open up their bibles. No spiritual conversations whatsoever. The fill-in co had come twice in a year and almost a half and each visit he would dump off ten mags both times in our mail box. Yippee!.
I wish we could have had them charged back then but we were still in that scared mode. Now, I wish I would have gotten my twenty-two out and fired a couple of shots in the air to really scare them off.
The measures that some elders will go through just to get their time in is pathetic to say the least. All in the little town of Elmira, Ontario.

Be careful what you ask for sowhatnow. I had googled the cardinal song bird which gives you different songs the cardinal will sing and I couldn't get rid of him. Every time I would play the song he would come to the windows and sing nonstop. Him and his mate plus another couple had moved into our bush for the summer and had their babies there.
Once I moved I thought I would try it on a pair of ravens that made our barn their home and it worked on them as well. Now we have them around the house every time we play the call. When it comes closer to the fall I stop playing the song birds that have to migrate or they tend to stick around which I don't want.

Thank you, Simon. Until you have walked in someone's shoes especially when your a child and your parents are suppose to protect you from such wickedness and they don't, you bet some of us are hurt. Just picture a ten year old child watching their parents fight physically in front of you because one will follow the org on the no blood issue while the mother has gone into a deep depression until she takes her life a few years later on the very same date her son passes away. And your only ten, and your brother that is dying is eleven so your about to lose your play mate for life. All because of no blood. I hope none of you will ever experience that.
The fact that I had to leave home at fifteen not know anyone in the world because you tell your mother that your father tried something on you and she tells you the only thing to do is leave home. So here I was at fifteen hitchhiking into the closest town and staying in a van at the auto wreckers not knowing who to trust or where my next meal was going to come from let alone finishing my education which I did later on. Honestly, I don't know how I did it.
Why are any of us on this site? To me angry and bitter is posting pics and making fun of the witnesses and name calling. Do you really think jw's will want to read here. I came here because people like the Searcher, Blondie, Mary ect ,,, were opening my eyes to the falsehoods of the org. and are mature about it. I get angry when I see this and want to share it with my older sister whom I will never be able to talk to ever again or my two other brothers or all my nieces. All in the name of jw.org.
I've earned the right to be sad, angry and bitter if that's what some think but next time you post make sure you choose your words wisely. We didn't ask to be abused and manipulated by an organisation which my parents were also under their influence. Having your childhood, parents and siblings stolen from you as well as fake friends in the org was not what I had signed up for and never will again in the name of god! All I wanted was a sense of belonging that I had taken away from me for such stupid reasons.

Why are you on an EXjoho site like this one promoting your blog which encourages people to want to find out whether all those lovely things you write are really true about the johos.? Especially when you have read all the hurtful things that have been done to all of us. I don't see that written on your blog.
All the suicides(my mother) that have gone on. My god, there was another one on this site just this week. Are you really that senseless or what. Or the fact that we have lost loved ones(my brother) through no blood policy. Or the pedos(my father) that have injured little children.
Please go join them. Sounds like you would fit right in!!!!!!!!
